notes types of magazine covers

cover type  

1.Early magazine covers- No photo cause photography was not produced consist of drawings or paintings no dateline or price or bar code the topics tended to be very ethical. 
2. the poster cover- a picture small words and a head line no bar code disavantges it just has pictures the viewer will awsume that theres just one subject.
3.pics married to type- less words there on one side text involved with the photo goes into photos not many entry points. 
4.in the forest of words - alot of words differnt fonts sizes colors and frame around the subject . disavantage its destracting and you dont see the picture.

#37 (tie) National Geographic (October 1978)
This cover of National Geographic magazine is entitled Conversations with a Gorilla, with Koko the gorilla snapping a photograph of her reflection in the mirror. The photo was of such high quality and significance that it was chosen to be the cover photo for the October 1978 National Geographic article featuring Koko. Developmental psychologist Francine Patterson spent six years with Koko teaching her sign language and this led Patterson and other researchers to believe Koko displayed evidence of linguistic capabilities. 

What i really like about this self portrait is the fact that a gorilla is taking a picture of her self through a mirror which honestly i think is pretty cool. And the fact that its a self portrait which i think the gorilla dose not know that the fact is that She took a picture of her self but what i want to know is how they train the gorilla to take the photo in the first place.  

magazine cover

self potrate

1 - Use a tripod. Seriously. While it’s possible to get good photos while you’re hanging on to your camera at arms-length, it’s a lot easier if you’ve got the freedom to move around a bit.   

2. Use a mirror! It seems so obvious, but how to use mirrors is important, too – take it down from the wall, and experiment!                           



I like this photo because they a picture from inside the persons mouth which is pretty interesting i wounder how they took the photo in the mouth. But you can obviosly tell that its a dentist.                  



I think this the guitar player from the rolling stones im not sure well he looks like as old as a dinosaur. But anyways i like this photo because you can really tell that this person is an artist by the guitar the book and the cup of tea kinda puts the whole artistit thing in a nut shell i think.


I like this portrait because its old school its like this guy was the inavator of self portrait photography. 






I like this photo because this dude looks extreamly brutal hes like a skeleton puppet  or something.He must of use some program on the computer but whatever it was he was extreamly creative.    



I like this photo because this guy looks really fancy and casual with his pipe and his robe.    









This guy looks cool he looks like a preacher im not sure what that is behind him though.            







Im probly going to take a picture of one of those statue eagles and im going to use croping and suplicity because there s ethier other pictures or book shelves around that might get in my picture. There are to statue eagles im talking about one in the main office and one in the library im going for the one in the main office. But to be honest im not very sure what i really want to do the whole eagle thing is just a little idea to get me started.

20 10

1. What was the best song of 2010? 
Beast of man by Arch enemy  I like this song because the guitar player Micheal Amott i think has really found his real tone and as a mucian and as a guitar player he has become a very musical with his playing. Over all I still feel this band is still pretty heavy and i feel as if they became more musical as a group. Just because they know how to write its not just crazy fast death metal.




2. What was the best movie of 2010?
  Unstoppable this movie is about a run away train that could have been easily avoided . But they are trying to keep the train away from the city because the run away train contains a highly combustion able chimerical that can destroy the whole city.  









 3. What was the most important news story of the year?        
   World Trade 9 11 Ground Zero Discovery
According to the April 5 edition of BBc scientists searched a decade later for any remains of over 1,000 people still missing from the 9 11 attack which occurred Sept 11 2001 and caused the collapse of the World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City. On July 15, workers constructing the new World Trade Center discovered an 18th Century 32 ft-long ship (9.8m) hull in an abandoned riverbed at Ground Zero.


 
      
4. Who was the most important person of 2010?
James Cameron
 Cameron released a movie that topped his own box-office record and, oh yeah, changed movie going forever. The first film to assert 3-D technique as genuine artistic device, Avatar didn't just entrance audiences around the world; it altered the way Hollywood studios thought about making and marketing blockbusters 










5. What was the biggest sports OR entertainment, story OR person of 2010 (you should google what is appropriate for your choice)   When Conan o Brian got his big come back from Tbs after being canceled by nbc. Now he has a really funny show on tbs called Conan it s a great show it airs before lopez tonight . I only watched it a few times before but its pretty hilarious. 

Finally, I want to know about YOUR holiday.

1. Tell me what is the one thing that happened on your holiday that you will remember? It can be a trip, a family visit, a present, something fun.   I got a really cool drum machine i can program or create beats in it and write bass parts and program it in there so i can write music and play along with it  its really great tool to have when it comes to writing and creating your own music. But it dose not replace the connection musicians have when they all jam together.  

2. What are your resolutions for the 2011 year? Survive the year and jam more and excersise more also past the taks test. And get my full licenses so i dont have to take the bus anymore also too pass my junior year so i can relax my senior year. 

3. What are you looking forward to in 2011?  The guitar field trip to new york and the battle of the bands competition also my uil and solo and ensemble competition so im pretty busy this year jamin.

best pictures of 2010

I like this photo because it has a really eerie feeling to and the roster on top of the casket to me is the iceing on the cake . It also shows you how poor these people are because you can see that the casket seems to be broken and it wont close all the way.            





I like this photo because it looks really cool with the rain on the lens and that Huge lighting bolt hitting the really the really big Building in hong kong. And all the color in the city really brings this picture to life.        






This photo is really cool because of the HUGE super cell storm it kinda looks like a hurricane and a massive tornado.
